Highlights
Pet care experience
Worry free care when you're away
I've worked with animals my entire life, from my own personal pets to working in pet boarding facilities, grooming salons, pet stores, vets office & volunteering with rescue groups with over 20 years professional pet care experience. I even ran my own pet sitting business for 5 years, which became highly demanding. Thanks to Rover, I'm looking forward to getting back into pet sitting part time as I love caring for all types of animals. I have experience with everything from dogs and cats to exotic animals and even farm animals. I have more than enough experience to care for your pets and home while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
I believe pets are most comfortable when they can stay in their own environment and follow their usual routine. My goal during drop-in visits is to mirror what they’re used to as closely as possible to reduce stress and anxiety. I take trust seriously when working inside clients’ homes. In addition to pet care, I’m happy to bring in mail or packages and tend to small household needs like watering plants if requested. I approach every visit with respect for both the pet and the home.
Ratings and reviews
AJ is the best! He leaves thoughtful notes and takes great pictures. I can enjoy my vacation when I know he's taking care of my kitty!
AJ truly goes above and beyond in every possible way. He communicates before, during, and after the visit, and treats my puppy like his own. I can fully enjoy my time away knowing AJ has everything handled. We are beyond grateful.
AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.
Greatest pet sitter! Wonderful with my cats; really helpful in feeding, filling water, litter, and clean-up. Notices things pets need and just takes care of it. Best decision I ever made was getting AJ as a sitter!
Word can’t even begin to describe AJ, he’s not just my dog walker he is apart of our family. I work an extremely demanding job and he has become by baby Sophie’s best friend. The amount of care and detail he puts into every interaction and rover card is a blessing AJ has become a true blessing in Sophie and my life. He has redefined what it means to be a dog sitter. I don’t know what we would do with out him. When you hire AJ you don’t just haute a care giver you hire your own personal angel 💗
My first experience on Rover...AJ is absolutely wonderful with my frenchie! Check ins are on time and so thorough, it is an absolute delight to know my fur baby is getting some loving and checked on while I am away. HIGHLY recommend 10/10 ✨️

Schedule
I’m self-employed and structure my schedule around providing consistent, dependable pet care. Because I manage my own time, I’m able to prioritize visits, maintain routines, and be flexible when pets need extra attention. Pet care is a core part of my weekly routine, not something I squeeze in. I focus on reliability, clear communication, and making sure pets experience as little disruption as possible while their owners are away. My background in client-facing, responsibility-driven work strongly shapes how I approach pet care.
